Toe walking: What you need to know
Toe walking is a term used to describe a gait pattern where individuals walk on their toes without any weight bearing on their heels. It is commonly observed in toddlers who are just learning to walk, but it can also persist into childhood and adulthood. While occasional toe walking is usually not a cause for concern, persistent toe walking can be a sign of an underlying medical condition that may require further evaluation and treatment.
